Product Description:For the
first time ever Scorpion, Sub-Zero and the Mortal Kombat
warriors battle with Batman, Superman and other popular DC
Universe Super Heroes. Choose your side and challenge your
opponents with a new fighting system including Freefall Kombat
and Klose Kombat along with dynamic multi-tiered environments.
Plus, pick your favorite character from MK or DCU and pursue a
fighting adventure in the new single player mode with an
intertwined storyline and two unique
perspectives.

StoryThe
story of how the heroes and villains of Mortal
Kombat and the DC universe could find themselves not
only existing on the same plain, but battling each other
revolves around coincidental victories in the respective
realms by Raiden and Superman. In Raiden's case it was a
victory over Shao Kahn, while Superman bested Darkseid.
These occurred at the exact same time and involved
inter-dimensional elements, which somehow merged their
two enemies into one being, Dark Kahn, while allowing
the characters of the two universes to interact. In this
merging the powers of the heroes and villains are
scrambled as well, making some stronger than they ever
were, and leaving others vulnerable for the first time
in their lives, allowing each to battle on more or less
equal footing. And battle they do without realizing that
the uncontrollable rage that they feel for each other is
actually the work of Dark Khan.

GameplayMortal Kombat vs. DC
Universe being a fighter, gameplay consists of
one-on-one battles, both in local play and online, in
which players can choose a character from either side
who will face off against a counterpart from the other.
Each character has unique attacks and special finishing
moves, and fighting arenas vary depending on whether
your character comes from the Mortal Kombat or DC
universe. Keeping with the reputation for brutality in
the Mortal Kombat franchise, characters from this
side will have access to fatalities, while the
historically less overly violent DC characters will
execute "heroic brutalities," which are end moves where
the opponent while beaten, is not killed. The game also
features new gameplay mechanics such as: Freefall
Kombat, in which players can engage in extended combat
while in midair; Klose Kombat, during which the play
angle moves to a close-up view of the action; The Test
Your Might mini-game where you smash your opponent
through walls; and Rage Mode, which increases the power
of a character's attack by 50% and provides protection
against being stunned by an opponent.
